The appointment was at 1:30 PM. But that's not when your actual interview is. You get there and in front of the building there's a tent for shelter. You stand under it and wait till a person comes out around 1:30 and starts calling names.
Here is why my experience was awesome and the 4 other people who were also there for their K1 interview was (probably) horrible.
First: RTFM (Read the freaking manual). Or in this case your interview instructions. 2 of the 4 other people there had their cellphones with them. If you have ANY electronics with you they will not let you in until they process everyone else without electronics first. Including non immigration appointments. Immigration appointments are called on first, unless you have an electronic device. Then anyone regardless of what kind of appointment goes before you.
The other 2 had no electronic device so they were let in along with me almost instantly. But they both had not read the instructions properly. One of the two hadn't booked their medical prior to the interview, thinking it said to take it AFTER. The other person could not speak proper English nor Dutch and brought a translator, but not a certified one.
Long story short: I was in there for 30 minutes total, 15 of those were the interview, 15 of those were waiting and getting my stuff checked by security.
Have all your documents, follow the instructions and you'll be in and out before you know it. Approved and all.

Everything went well, the flights were good even though it seemed like forever that I was stuck in the planes.
The first officer was very easy going. Took my paperwork and stamped my visa and I was on my way.
I was randomly selected by a customs officer and he asked to go through my stuff. When I told him I was on a K1 Visa after he asked me why I was there, he brought me to the front and went through my luggage quickly. Otherwise I would've waited in line to go through customs, it was very nice of him to do that.
He poked fun at me packing my PS3 in my luggage, noting that I have my priorities straight. We had a laugh at that and he said I was good to go. I went through the doors and it was finally over. The last time she had to come pick me up from the airport and the last time for a long time that I have to go back to that airport. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
